Smartmatic Lawyer issued a statement

Statement from Smartmatic lawyer Erik Connolly: “Dominion’s litigation exposed some of the misconduct and damage caused by Fox’s disinformation campaign. Smartmatic will expose the rest. Smartmatic remains committed to clearing its name, recouping the significant damage done to the company, and holding Fox accountable for undermining democracy.”

We may not get any more Judicial confirmations based on current situation

There have been no judicial confirmations since February 16th.

There can be no more confirmations unless Senator Feinstein is healthy enough to return to the Senate and vote.

She has indicated she may not be back for awhile since she wants her seat to be temporarily filled.

But Republicans are refusing to allow it.

Therefore, if Feinstein doesn't return, there will be no more Democratic judicial confirmations for likely years, which means we won't be able to undo the damage Trump and McConnell did.

I hope people here realize how detrimental it is to this country for people to keep refusing to retire and resign when they're younger and healthier.

GOP plans on blocking Feinstein's Judiciary replacement

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/04/17/dianne-feinstein-senate-judiciary-replacement/

Even when we have the majority, the GOP still manages to strip us of our ability to do things. It's infuriating.

The idea that nobody is above the law in America is a lie

Clarence Thomas To Amend Financial Forms After Home Sale Bombshell: Report


Thomas is amending his disclosure forms to add his corrupt real estate deal and nothing negative will ever happen to him.

The fact that one of the supposed best jurists in the country can't even comply with a legal disclosure form proves he's unfit for the bench.

And yet, he can just change the form and get away with it. Something us peasants would never be allowed to do.

The elite in America are very much above the law.

Trump made up to $160 million from foreign countries as president


US Constitution, Article I, Section 9, Clause 8: No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state.

Florida to allow death penalty with 8-4 jury vote instead of unanimous

Florida just gets sicker and sicker every day.

How long before Florida is the same as Iran or Saudi Arabia?

Trump appeals Pence testimony to Jack Smith

More delay. More mob tactics. Has anyone in history ever abused the judiciary this much and gotten away with it? It's insane. He should be fined billions of dollars for how many vexatious litigation he engages in.

Ron DeSantis signs 6-week abortion ban

Happened late last night with no cameras or press. He just tweeted out a picture of him signing it with a bunch of fascist stepford wives.

Now that Civil Rights groups have issued travel advisories for minorities to stay away from Florida, it's time to issue a travel advisory for women. Florida is a dangerous place to be anything but a white, straight, "Christian," male.

When is the DoJ going to open a criminal investigation into the Roberts Court?

Or is there a memo against indicting sitting Supreme Court justices?

Because there is no question that this court is Russia-level corrupt. Thomas should absolutely be in prison right now. His corruption is a prima facie case of bribery.

Then we have Alito telling Republican plaintiffs to keep pushing their cases to the Court so the court can rule in their favor.

We all know Kavanaugh is a rapist who perjured himself.

When is the DoJ going to actually route out the corruption in our government?
